The new Fox 38 air spring is very close to coil, you can find a very interesting plot of spring force on PB (sorry), which is very inline with the plot from RS :) This plot shows that RS Debonair+ has a lot more breakaway force than new Fox spring from 38s. So the RS is really fixing their inferior air spring design with those buttercups. Honestly, they have great marketing though, they made a failure into a feature, hats off to them.
